Pikmin: The Rise of the Illuminati

Template:PTROTI Pikmin: The Rise of the Illuminati is more of a silly concept than a full-out game (still with plenty of content, just not to the extent of a main fangame). This game is being designed by EmperorRagingLongLegs.

Story

Day 1

Upon discovering a new area on the Pikmin Planet, Olimar and friends land on the surface. All they see are Glowstems, and, suddenly, three onions appear out of the ground, arranged in a triangle. Olimar is not sure what it means, so he jots down some quick notes and starts to approach the triangle. Out of nowhere comes a giant foot, squashing the onions. Olimar looks up, but he isn't quite sure what he's looking at. Some tall creature with two legs, two arms, and a pyramid with an eye on each side for a head. The creature dismisses Olimar and walks on. Little does Olimar know, the Illuminati have returned (with the aid of Glowstems) to Earth to dissolve all world governments, and it's up to Olimar to stop them. Story continues here.

End of Day 1

Olimar feels that the events of the day weren't really significant, so he decides to head back to Hocotate. Unfortunately, upon attempting to exit the atmosphere, a force field appears, preventing an escape. Apparently the Illuminati have blockaded the planet, only letting objects in, and not out.

All writing beyond this point in not by the author.

New foes, new friends

After some time Olimar moves on to the second area (suspicious glade) after completing some objectives (probably collecting items) and finds some more types of pikmin (probably rock, maybe brown or orange) and items. However, the Illuminati high council realise that someone on the planet is "throwing a wrench into their plans" by stealing their technology, sabotaging some of their outposts and attacking their troops/pikmin/machines. Understandably their mildly ticked off by this and send a termination squad to kill Olimar and kill and/or convert his pikmin. The day after the order is given out Olimar is busy with his pikmin planning what to do next when out of nowhere a dropship appears and the squad gets out. Before Olimar can throw a single pikmin the ship fires a pulse cannon, rendering the pikmin unconscious and Olimar on the ground. Just as the squad commander is about to shoot him, another ship arrives and blows up the Illuminati dropship. Troopers get out of the attacking ship and kill all the Illuminati soldiers. Just as one of the soldiers from the attacking force starts talking to him, he passes out. Olimar wakes up in what appears to be a medical bay on-board a ship. A nurse tells him that he's been unconscious for 5 hours. Olimar asks what happened while he was out (like any sensible spaceman would). He (yes, a male nurse, how shocking) tells Olimar that the troops took care of a nearby outpost (so that's off Olimars to-do list) which was attacking them after the death of the termination squad. The soldiers then brought him to where he is now. He is also told that the force field has gone from one way to complete block mode, but they do not understand why the Illuminati didn't generate the field earlier. Olimar asks one final question before leaving the medical bay... "who are you?" The nurse replies that they are the HQDG (human quadrant defence grid)and they were set up by the survivors of the Great Triad war who settled on the habitable moons of Jupiter and Saturn. Olimar say's thanks for the info and looking after him. He then heads off to look at the rest of the ship, if it is a ship...
